Italian Communist leaders have praised the Chinese for asking the right questions about why Soviet-style Marxism has failed economically, and a highly sympathetic account of the Chinese reforms appeared in East Germany's official newspaper Neues Deutschland. Svetozar Stojanovic, a Yugoslav social scientist now serving as a visiting scholar in the U.S., goes so far as to say that "in the eyes of many people, the Chinese have become the new vanguard in the Communist world."

Five thousand strong, a hopeful delegation of Croat peasants meanwhile cheered sexagenarian Croat Leader Vecheslav Wilder who cried: "We have endured seven lean years, given us by the Belgrade Dictatorship, but seven fat years lie ahead!" Seasoned old Croat rebels, such as famed Svetozar Pribitchevitch who now lurks in Paris, meanwhile slipped warning letters into Yugoslavia by secret courier. They feared that the Regent of Yugoslavia, Prince Paul, has developed Nazi leanings and chose M. Stoyadinovitch to be Premier for the purpose of shifting Yugoslavian policy a few points away from Paris and several points nearer Berlin. "Beware!" warned Rebel...
